Amigos for Christ
Serving His Poor: We are diverse and dedicated group, concerned about our less fortunate brothers and sisters. We cannot change the entire world, but we can help improve the world of some poor Nicaraguan people in need. We became aware of the grave living conditions in northwest Nicaragua during a mission trip to that area in 1997. Hurricane Mitch struck Central America on October 30, 1998. Almost 3000 people were killed around Chinandega, Nicaragua, and entire villages disappeared under volcanic mudslides. Since then, we have strived to settle and sustain these displaced families in safe, healthy communities. We plan and sponsor medical, housing, feeding, educational and clean water programs. Our annual mission trips to Nicaragua provide an opportunity for committed individuals to share in advancing the quality of life for the needy there. We contribute, both by our labors and by the support of our mere presence. Please visit www.amigosforchrist.org
